As the engagement day dawned, Yuvika adorned herself in delicate lace and fragrant blossoms, her eyes reflecting the anticipation of a beautiful beginning. Neil, her steadfast companion, wore a smile that mirrored the certainty of a love written in the stars. The air buzzed with joy and laughter as they exchanged promises beneath a canopy of love and commitment. However, fate, with its enigmatic sense of timing, chose this very moment to unveil its cruel design. In the blink of an eye, life took an unexpected turn, plunging their world into a darkness they never foresaw. The love story that had been etched in the recesses of her mind was now a blank canvas, devoid of the colors that once painted their shared history. In the wake of this tragedy, Yuvika's heart became a stone-cold, confused, and haunted by the shadows of forgotten moments. The man who stood before her, eyes pleading for recognition, was a stranger in the vast landscape of her lost memories. A prelude to a journey where shattered echoes whispered of a love that refused to be erased, even in the face of profound loss. As Yuvika grappled with the fragments of her past, her once luminous eyes now mirrored confusion and sadness. Neil, the love she could no longer remember, became a phantom in her life, a name echoing in the hollow chambers of her subconscious. "Mujhe kuch yaad kyun nahi hai?," Yuvika whispered, her voice carrying the weight of a thousand unspoken longings. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Asfia's gaze lingered on her husband, a man who possessed all the qualities she'd ever dreamt of: tall, handsome, and unfailingly kind-a true gentleman. Yet, beneath his perfect exterior, she sensed a profound sadness, his eyes devoid of light. This was an arranged marriage, she reminded herself, and love couldn't be rushed. He provided for her, granting her every wish, yet an unspoken question lingered-was material comfort enough? Faisal, in his own silent contemplation, had accepted the marriage to Asfia, a recent graduate from a dental college. It had been his parents' wish, and he had gone along with it, almost apathetic to the outcome. His heart, once given entirely to Fiza, had been broken, leaving him emotionally empty. Love had become synonymous with pain, and he harbored no desire to endure such hurt again. "Look at me," Asfia thought, "I'm right here." ***************************************************** Can a hopeless romantic and a skeptic find love? *****************************************************
